[Verse]
C Am F G
I don''''t want to go to sleep, I don''''t want to be awake.
C Am F G C
Don''''t want to go someplace that I cannot escape.
Am F G
I don''''t want to be sideways, I don''''t want to be straight.
C F C
I don''''t want to go right now, I do not want to wait.
C F C
So give me tomorrow and I''''ll miss yesterday,
Am G C
But I won''''t pretend like I know it all today.
Am F G C
Well I know what''''s right, and I know what ain''''t.
Am F G
It''''s hard to feel united in this here state.
[Chorus]
F C F G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F C G
Go on, honey.
F C G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F G C
Go on all the way.
[Verse]
C Am F G C
I don''''t want to fight. I don''''t want to run away.
Am F G C
I don''''t want to turn my back or laugh in your face.
Am F C
I don''''t want to preach for preaching''''s sake,
Am F G C
but it seems we''''re sleeping in this bed we made.
C Am F C
So give me tomorrow and we can laugh at yesterday
Am F G C
but I won''''t pretend there ain''''t nothing wrong today.
C F G C
And I don''''t want to close my eyes on the progress that we''''ve made
C Am F G C
but for every inch there''''s a mile of mistakes.
[Chorus]
F C F G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F C G
Go on, honey.
F C G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F G C
Go on all the way.
[Verse]
C Am F G C
I don''''t want to be a painter anymore, not this way.
Am F G C
They like what I''''m saying just \\"change the color of the paint.\\"
Am F G C
Would you buy my work on the worth of the frame?
Am F C
It used to be I''''d make everything I made.
C Am F C
So give me tomorrow and we can get passed yesterday
Am F G C
Is this one of them things, some passing phase,
C F G C
where we all get up in arms but our arms are slow to raise.
C Am F G C
People die, and buildings go up in flames.
[Chorus]
F C F G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F C G
Go on, honey.
F C G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F G C
Go on all the way.
[Verse]
C Am F G C
I don''''t want to be a writer anymore, not this way.
Am F G C
I may as well have been an actor so you could tell me what to say.
Am F G C
Or maybe a marionette so you could move my arms and legs,
Am F C
I may as well drive out to Montauk on Memorial Day.
C Am F C
So give me tomorrow and we can get forget yesterday.
Am F G C
It''''s this modern focus that''''s so hard to maintain.
C Am F G C
A flash in the pan, short-term gain.
C Am F G C
No I don''''t want to be a writer anymore, not that way.
[Chorus]
F C F G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F C G
Go on, honey.
F C G
Go on / Go on, my babe.
F G C
Go on all the way.
